Train Nostalgia



Nostalgia 
by Carson McCullers (1917-1967), 
Look Homeward, Americans

It is a curious emotion, 
this certain homesickness I have in mind. 
With Americans, it is a national trait, 
as native to us as the roller coaster or the jukebox.
It is no simple longing for the home town or country of our birth. 
The emotion is Janusfaced: 
we are torn between a nostalgia for the familiar 
and an urge for the foreign and strange. 
As  often as not, we are homesick most for the places
we have never known.
